Drifting with the race removed. There is no lap to complete and nobody to beat; there is a narrow track that keeps turning and the question of how long you can keep the car sideways without touching anything. That makes it a sustained skill test rather than a series of attempts, which is a harder and more interesting thing than it sounds. The narrowness is what gives it teeth. On a wide track a drift can be corrected sloppily; here a slide that goes a few degrees too far meets a wall, so the whole game is small throttle and steering adjustments held for a long time. Score accumulates while the car is sideways and resets when it straightens, which means the correct play is to never fully recover — you are always in the middle of a slide, transitioning from one corner into the next.

How to play Drift Frenzy

  1. Initiate with the handbrake and hold with the throttle, not with steering.
  2. Look where you want to go rather than where the car is pointing.
  3. Make small throttle corrections; large ones end the slide in a wall.
  4. Transition directly from one corner into the next rather than straightening between them.
  5. Restart immediately, since the feel for the throttle is what carries between runs.

Tips

  • Straightening the car resets the score, so a continuous sloppy slide beats a clean stop.
  • Narrow sections want less angle, not less speed.
  • If you keep spinning at the same corner, you are entering too fast rather than steering wrong.
